THE SALVATION ARMY

The Salvation Army is an international Christian church worshipping and working in 124 countries and has more than 800 local churches, known as 'corps' in the UK and Ireland. We believe in openly sharing our faith and the good news of God's love for everyone, helping individuals to develop and grow in their own personal relationship with God, demonstrating a practical concern for all and speaking out against social injustice. Our churches (we call them 'corps') are places of worship where Sunday meetings are held, but also provide a practical expression of our Christian faith during the week, when our doors are open to offer programmes and activities for the whole community. These vary by church but could include youth activities, parent and toddler groups, drop-in centres, luncheon clubs, advice clinics and lots more.
